The pictures are detailed and I believe I will enjoy coloring them. I just got the book and haven't had a lot of time to look at it completely but it seems that there are color photos in the back to show what the creatures look like in the movies.

I love these books. Yes they are double sided, non-perforated pages. For me that just means I got to experience more with colored pencils. Thats a plus. As far as the pages sprawling across 2 pages being uncolorable I find that false. A lot of people are complaining about the merperson page. I've attached a picture of my finished one.

I liked many of the pictures in this book, however, I'll be returning it. There are just way too many double page spread pictures that go into the binding loosing faces and important details of a picture. For the price of this book, I expected better. I shouldn't have to break the spine of a nice coloring book I paid decent money for in order to color the pictures. Some of the nicest pictures in the book are those that go into the binding, which is really disappointing.

I love these coloring books but my only complaint is with them being two sided. I know someone commented and said that all adult and children's coloring books are that way but I have 20+ adult coloring books and they are all one sided, so I wish Scholastic had done the same with these ones. It makes the coloring utensil selection difficult to make sure things don't bleed through the paper. I also wish the paper was white and not off-white. That being said, they're great coloring books for HP fans and the images are very nice. I am looking forward to owning the rest of them.

There are 3 things I don't like about this coloring book.
1- pictures are printed on both sides of the page. This means you have to be careful about what you use to color (markers/pens bleed through, colored pencils can make indentations to the other side).
2- Some of the pictures are drawn across 2 facing pages. These don't look nice because there is a gap in the middle of the picture where the pages meet.
3- The book does not lay flat, so it's hard to color the edges sometimes, and if you're in the front or back of the book (as opposed to the middle), you have to hold the book open while you color sometimes.
I do like the pictures and think they are fun to color. I just wish they had put more thought into the actual format of the physical book.

Paper quality is so so. It's not terrible like copy paper but it could be thicker. The color is off white. The book has double sided pages a con. The artwork varies greatly from page to page. Some has poor line work ( seems unrefined) some are very nice lines. The images go into the binding making it difficult to color some pages.
Over all I love the book for the great things but they really should have been able to release a better product.

I like this book, although the images aren't as complex as some of the other Harry Potter books. Still fun to colour. Dual-sided pages mean you need to be cautious what you use to colour with. At least the characters look close to what was shown in the movie and there is a guide in the back with coloured pictures to help you refresh your memory on how you could fill them in. (I personally like to make them all look different based on whatever random mood I am in.)
Overall, this is a really fun book to look through and even more fun to colour. A nice way to commemorate a set of books and films that has really taken over our hearts.

If you love Harry Potter and need some relaxation, you must consider this book. The pages are detailed, which is great for long-term coloring projects. There are only a couple of pages that I would consider "finish quickly" pages, so if you're not okay with leaving your coloring unfinished and coming back to it, you may want to consider a different option.
The creatures in this book are extremely detailed, and there are full color photos in the book to use as inspiration as well. It's also fun to re-imagine the animals and creatures and to be able to create a whole new Harry-Potter universe!

Ich bin wahrlich ein Potterhead, das erste Ausmalheft war richtig schön. Der Einband bestand aus festerem Papier und die einzelnen Seiten waren ebenfalls qualitativ weit besser als in diesem. Leicht enttäuscht

Not Great
Reviewed in Canada on September 26, 2016Verified Purchase
It has some good pictures, but a lot of the pages are filled with fluff (see picture). Also you can see in lots of pictures there is literal "copy and pasted" sections. If you want to colour, stick to adult colouring books, because they are much more intricate and enjoyable.

Reviewed in Canada on February 3, 2016Verified Purchase
While it's neat to be able to colour the creatures as they appeared in the films, I was hoping to get the chance to 'create my own', so to speak, without reference to the film images. The Harry Potter world has so many unique creatures, so it seems a shame to limit the user's creativity somewhat by sticking so close to the films.
Folks considering purchasing this should also know that several pages use a tiled repeat of a silhouette; if you're looking for a book with full-page images of creatures throughout, this won't be the right pick for you.

Exactly as pictured, I bought this for a family member and they loved it! It includes such a variety of small intricate details on pages to large areas to colour in. It also includes scenes and characters from most books (movies).
